This year Cinnamon Press is five years old and so far we’ve celebrated with some great give away gifts and a competition for a writing course, won by Gill McEvoy. This brand new website designed by Armin Osmancevic and Cinnamon Press author, Adnan Mahmutovic, is the next phase of the celebrations in what is proving to be a fantastic year for Cinnamon Press.
In June I Spy Pinhole Eye, poetry by Philip Gross responding to Simon Denison’s pinhole images, won the English language award for Wales Book of the Year and recently Abegail Morley’s poetry collection, How to pour madness into a teacup, was short-listed for the Forward Prize for best first collection, awaiting the result on October 6th. A poem from Judy Kendall’s second collection, Joy Change, was also selected to feature in the Forward anthology of best poems of the year.
We have great titles coming out this autumn with launches in Cardiff, London and Cambridge so please join us if you can and help us to celebrate five years of innovative, independent, international publishing in style.
This autumn the first of our new titles, My Only Ever Oedipal Complaint by Omar Sabbagh, is launched on September 14th at Lumen, Tavistock Place, WC1, 7.00 p.m. Omar will be reading alongside Cinnamon Press author, Sheila Hillier, reading from her debut collection, A Quechua Confession Manual.
The launch is part of a series of readings at Lumen to raise funds for a cold weather shelter. All funds go to the shelter and there is an open mic at each event. Please bring copies of your poems if you would like them to be considered for next year’s anthology in support of the shelters.
